What is inside the Melodic expansion

The pack contains 88 keygroup programs, each built on a set of 468 samples. Keygroup programs map samples across the pads and keys of the MPC, so each patch is ready to play rather than requiring you to build a multisample from scratch.

The content totals 745 MB. Audio previews are included, which lets you listen to the programs before you load them into a project.

Who it suits and what you need to run it

The developer positions the pack for melodic house and techno producers. The programs are designed for use within the MPC environment, so the expansion requires MPC software or hardware to run.

Compatible Akai standalone models are the MPC One, MPC X, MPC Live, MPC Live mkII and MPC Force. The pack also works with the MPC Touch, MPC Renaissance, MPC Beats and the MPC software. The developer notes it is compatible with the MPC Beats DAW.
